My Environmental Ethics

   My environmental ethics are mostly Ecocentric, I believe the integrity of the entire ecological system to be important not just the individual. I'm not saying that i don't believe in individuality and individual species as important because i do, but when it comes down to it individual animals ( Humans included ) are insignificant compared to the bigger ecological picture. We cannot concern ourselves with the well-being of every organism on Earth because it is impossible and would be exhausting to attempt to do so. Instead we need to concern ourselves with the bigger picture, the ecosystems themselves. If we ensure that the ecosystem as a whole is healthy then it will benefit all the organisms within it. Sometimes sacrifices need to be made like letting a species die out or letting nature take its course with a group of people, if it is for the greater good.
